The role involves working closely with our surgical, inpatient and customer care teams to ensure the smooth day-to-day running of the practice. You should be an experienced and competent RVN with the skills and knowledge to complete all nursing tasks. Although the role is primarily supporting a busy imaging referral service, assistance in other departments is occasionally necessary so an overall high standard of nursing experience is desirable.

The Practice

We have a great team of staff that work towards the best possible outcome for the patient at costs that are accessible for most clients making us different to most referral centres. We have RCVS hospital status along with “OUTSTANDING” awards from the RCVS. We make a huge difference in the veterinary profession as there are not many places out there like us, just look at our reviews for examples.  Our facilities are outstanding and consist of MRI (in-house), CT (in-house), colour doppler ultrasound, video endoscopy, 3 theatres, DR x-ray suite just to name a few.

The Role

This is an exceptional chance to develop your clinical and technical skills, with the opportunity to learn and expand your knowledge in advanced imaging hardware, skills and scanning techniques, specifically CT and MRI. You will be joining a growing team which supports an end-to-end scanning service with a busy workload. The role involves liaising with other members of the imaging team and clinicians to provide diagnostic studies of excellent quality, and would involve positioning for and running imaging protocols, or supporting other imaging team members in doing so. 

The role involves a 40 hour week over 5 days, working one in 6 Saturdays with time back in leu. With no OOH or Bank Holiday working.

Company

We are a family run, independant practice and have been for over 40 years.

We would like to thank all of our clients for their patience over the last 2 years, we have expanded our practice by 30% and doubled the the team. This does give us more time and capacity to deal with the pets of Wigan and surrounding areas.
